Tsunami ... this coming 22nd July ? Seriously ... ?

Just received another interesting email (what's with all the emails these days eh?) ... a pretty serious claim if you asked me.

God know if this prediction is true or not.

I understand that there is so many ridiculous fake information and news circulating around the net. But yet, at the end of the day, it is better to take precaution rather than taking chances. Right ?

Anyway, according to the email, someone claim or rather, predicted that there will be another tsunami hitting on the 22nd of July. Countries which will be affected in a really bad way includes Malaysia (Sabah & Sarawak), Singapore, Maldives, Australia, Mauritius, Si Lanka, India, Indonesia and Philippines. So, we are to avoid beaches and all low land.

What's your say ? Who can forget the sorrow of 26 December 2004 ... the day tsunami hit Indian Ocean which resulted in Asian countries close to the ocean being affected so very badly. I remember clearly the day before, I went to Genting Highland with my close relatives. We had lots of fun. The day after, tsunami came and killing mercilessly an estimated of 230,000 people. That is a LOT of people !

Seeing the footage of people screaming and crying is really that heartbreaking. Children loosing their parents ... parents loosing their children ... dead bodies floating around the sea ... etc. Such sadness is truly like glasses and pins piercing through the heart and brain of a person. If that incident were to happen to me (touch wood), I will be devastated. Life is meaningless anymore. Loosing loved ones is sad enough but loosing them so sudden and in such condition is something unimaginable.

Whatever, no matter where you are, what you are doing or whether if you believe it or not, just be very careful every hour, every minute and every second. Life is too precious !!!

MSN is closing down...you must be joking !!!

I received an email ... today in fact ... with the title :-

"MSN will begin to charge you money soon !"

It is a forwarded email claimed to be sent by the directors of MSN - Tara and John.

Awkwardly , they would like to apologize for interrupting (like ... duh !) but MSN is closing down.

"We know many of these messages have been sent out lately, and that they wouldn't be true. However, this one is in fact true, and it will occur soon."

The reason given is due to the fact that too many inconsiderate people are taking up all the names (ie. making up lots of different accounts for just one person), therefore, they only have like 578 names left.

Well, it certainly sounded like a chain mail ... urghhh !!!

Why is that?

"If you would like to close your account, DO NOT SEND THIS MESSAGE ON. "
(Very tricky here ... what it mean is if you want to continue to use MSN, forward it)

We would not recommend this because if in the future you'd like to use MSN, and you don't send this message on, you will be CHARGED to use MSN monthly.
(So, that is why ... going one huge circle to convey the message hurh!)

If you would like to keep your account, then SEND THIS MESSAGE TO EVERYONE ON YOUR CONTACT LIST.
(There is it ... a normal chain mail kinda message)

As we said this before, this is no joke, and we will be shutting down the servers.
(Another one)

Please send it on.
(And another one)

There is a lot of grammatical and spelling errors in the message. A laughing stock indeed for directors of a huge company to have such mistakes, isn't it.

Another thing is that a link (click here) is included and it lead me to this old old piece of news dated February 25th 2001. It says "MSN to charge user fee" ... Hello ... that was like almost 8 years ago ... LOL

I googled a little and found this ... it is by SOPHOS.


(click to enlarge)

FYI, SOPHOS is a Security and Control solutions trusted by 100 million users and endorsed by industry analysts as a real alternative to Symantec and McAfee ... like ... wow!

If you did have a look at what SOPHOS found out you'll notice something.

Is the directors of MSN "Andy and John" or "Tara and John" ? ... LOL

I am not forwarding the email. It is all bullshit.

In my opinion the person who started this chain mail had nothing better to do.

Anyway, if MSN were to close down, no worries, I have Yahoo and Gmail to lean on to. After all, I never like MSN one bit .... am forced to use it because everyone is messenging with it ...

Hey, I thought MSN is now called "Windows Live" ... what a stupid chain mail !!!

Daddy, daddy, how was I born?

A little boy goes to his father and asks

"Daddy, how was I born?"

The father answers,

"Well son, I guess one day you will need to find out anyway!

"Your mum and I first got together in a chat room on Yahoo"



"Then, I set up a date via e-mail with your mum"



"We met at a Cyber-cafe".



"Later, we sneaked into a secluded room where your mum agreed to download from my hard drive"



"As soon I was ready to upload, we discovered that neither one of us had the brains to use a firewall"



"Since it was too late to hit the delete button, ...



... a pop-up appeared 9 months later that said:

My Past Life ... I am a ...

I received an email 3 years ago with a link which apparently will tell me about my past life.

Past Life Analysis ... cool ... I thought ...

I've been wondering all my life about what I am and where I've been in my past life.

According to the website:

1) I was a male in my last incarnation ... haha ... for your information, I still am >.^



2) I was born somewhere in the territory of modern USA South-East ... wow ... cool ... I am a American



3) I lived in the year 1075 ... wow ... that was loooooooog looooooooog time ago, ...


... in the galaxy far far away

4) Apparently, my profession was that of a monk (what !!!), bee-keeper (bee keeeeeper !!!) or lone gunman (hmmm...)



5) I am a person who are always involved with all new. I love changes, especially in art, music and cooking ... is it ......



6) The lesson that form my previous life that I brought to the present life was - there was an invisible connection between material and the spiritual world. It means that I must search, find and use the magical bridge to achieve whatever I wanted ...



... hmm ... come to think of it ... I am trying to do just that ^.^

And finally ...

"Do you remember now?

I said ...

"Nope. Not a thing. Erm ... I want a refund !!! "

.
.
.

Well, that's for getting me all up and excited !!! LOL

Give Past Life Analysis a try, who knows you may be Elvis Presley or Marilyn Monroe in your past life ..



Erm ... lets skip this image for now ...

Stop eating shushi and shashimi ? Are you serious... ?

Over the years, I have received all kinds of emails. While some are rather useful, there are also some huge pile of junk emails. So, what you are about to read is an email I received few days ago.

Useful or a junk, you decide. It's freaking scary though.

According to the article, Mr Shota Fujiwara, a Japanese man from Gifu prefecture complain incessantly about a persistent headache. He enjoys eating shashimi and shushi very much to the point of trying to get as 'alive and fresh' as can be to satisfy his appetite.

3 years ago, Mr Shota develops a severe headache. Well, he thought it was migrain and stress from work. Hell no. He seeks medical help when he started losing his psychomotor(mental) skills.

Upon closer inspection by a specialist on his scalp, the doctor noticed small movements beneath his skin. Yikes....



After a local anesthetic to his scalp, the doctor discovered the cause when tiny worms crawled out. Yiii.....

Thus, a major surgery was immediately called for. The extend of the infestation was horrific.



What we can learn from here is that tapeowrms, roundworms and whatever worms which abound in all meat in particular (in the case above- fishes) can only be killed by cooking it or freezing it.

So, the next time you eat shushi and shashimi, think twice.

As for me, I don't enjoy eating raw meat and fish. It has to be overly cooked. ^.^
